Editorial design was, and always will be, my first design love. Over the years, I’ve designed and art directed publications for distinctly different brands and audiences, leading multidisciplinary creative teams while staying very much in the work myself. That has meant developing concepts and layouts, directing photography and styling, managing budgets and freelancers, and seeing projects all the way through press checks, color proofing, and final production. Through it all, I’ve learned that great editorial work comes from having a clear point of view and knowing your audience well enough to recognize what belongs on the page and, just as importantly, what doesn’t.
